For an extra touch of elegance, consider drizzling the cooled coconut drops with a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and a touch of milk or lemon juice. Plumping the raisins in warm water (or even a bit of rum!) makes them extra juicy and flavorful. Ensure your butter is cold before incorporating it into the flour. This will create a more tender and crumbly texture. If you don't have raisins on hand, dried cranberries or chopped dates would make a delicious substitute.
